Hanging Spider on a Single Silk Thread

A simple spider dangles from a long, straight thread that runs from the very top of the page down to its round body. Eight thick, curved legs spread out below it, four on each side, each with a rounded tip. The top legs arc upward and outward before bending down, while the front pair curls inward near the bottom of the page like a pair of pincers. There is a small oval mark on the upper left of the body, and the outline is clean with no background, so there is plenty of open space. The wide legs and bold lines make this free printable easy for young kids to color. Try giving each leg a different color or a pattern of stripes, then count the legs together to practice counting to eight.
